Tax Semi-Senior

Tax Semi-Senior | Aylesbury | £30,000 – £40,000 | Permanent, Full-Time

A tax role with a difference — for someone who enjoys tax but doesn't want to give up accounts entirely.

We're recruiting a Tax Semi-Senior for a well-regarded accountancy practice in Aylesbury, and this one's a little unusual. Rather than a pure compliance seat, it's built around a genuine 50/50 split between tax and accounts — so it's ideally suited to someone who's been doing a bit of both and wants to keep it that way. If you've enjoyed the variety of a mixed role, or you're a tax person who misses getting into the numbers (or an accounts person growing their tax exposure), this could be a great fit.

You'll work across a varied client base of owner-managed businesses and individuals, handling personal and corporate tax alongside year-end accounts and VAT — with real support to develop and study behind you.

What you'll be doing
- Preparing personal tax returns and corporation tax computations
- Preparing year-end accounts for sole traders, partnerships and limited companies
- Handling VAT returns and general compliance across your client base
- Being a helpful, day-to-day point of contact for clients and their queries
- Supporting seniors and managers on advisory and planning work as it arises
- Keeping your jobs on track against deadlines and budgets

What you'll bring
- Practice experience covering both tax and accounts — the mixed background is the point
- Studying towards (or keen to study) ATT, ACCA or ACA — or qualified by experience
- Solid grounding in personal and/or corporate tax compliance
- Confident preparing accounts and comfortable on cloud software (Xero, QuickBooks or Sage)
- Well-organised, accurate, and happy juggling variety across two disciplines

What's on offer
£30,000 – £40,000 depending on experience, plus 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, a company pension, full study support and a good benefits scheme — in a practice that will let you keep a foot in both tax and accounts rather than forcing you down one route
